When I Accepted You |
You were poor |
So that I might enjoy |
The wealth of Your creation |
You were punished |
For all my mistakes |
So I’d be declared not guilty |
By association |
You took all that I am heir to |
And gave me all that belonged to You |
What more could anyone do? |
When I accepted You |
I never realized |
That I’d be accepted, too |
It took awhile to see |
That You bore God’s rejection |
So He’d never turn away from me |
I never knew |
I would receive so much |
When I accepted You |
Accepted You |
You met death |
So that I might know life |
And eternal restoration |
You took on the world |
So the likeness of God |
Could be drawn upon my being |
Like a blood relation |
The deepest needs my lifetime through |
Were all met on the cross by You |
What more could anyone do? |
When I accepted You |
I never realized |
That I’d be accepted, too |
It took awhile to see |
That You bore God’s rejection |
So He’d never turn away from me |
I never knew |
I would receive so much |
When I accepted You |
When I accepted You |
Oh, I never knew |
I would receive so much |
When I accepted You |
Accepted You |
Accepted You |
